Short summary - quite disappointed with the drama. I am probably in the minority here, but please, it is just my personal opinion. Was really hyped up for this, as I have heard so many positive reviews about this show being an epic love story, heart wrenching and brilliantly scripted. If anything, I only liked the first half of the story and decided to mainly watch this because of the good reviews, and because I am always interested in stories about North Korea. This drama was borderline inaccurate once it comes to storytelling about the "hermit kingdom" (not sure whether the screenwriters can can go ALL IN ACCURATE about the country, knowing that they have tense relations with the other Korea). That is what probably ticked me off the most. Additionally, I thought that the acting was a bit immature too, especially for a TV show with such an intense plot. Although I liked the OST a lot, and that's probably the only thing I'm taking away from this drama.
